Overview
About Me
I'm an INTP on the Myer-Briggs scale. I like thinking about everything. I naturally became a scientist. In my spare-time I like reading on a host of topics like history, theology and economics. I like sharing what I've learned with other people. I also enjoy testing and examining my own ideas in debates. If you're not into that kind of stuff, don't worry. I'm easy to please and not at all complicated to deal with.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm networking on conferences and therefore I have to travel. As a PhD student, I'd like to live cheaply wherever I travel. I'm interested in getting to know new people and exchange interesting ideas.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I'm enjoying a lot of different music. I like Glenn Gould playing Bach as well as post-rock (Explosions in The Sky are amazing! I've recently discovered If These Trees Could Talk )
Movies: I'm enjoying the latest Marvel movies a lot. In general I prefer serious movies, but I do like Jim Carrey and Ben Stiller movies a lot.
Books: ~90% non-fiction, Bible, Economics in One Lesson - Hazlitt, 80/20 Sales and Marketing - Marshall, The Secret of Selling Anything - Browne, The Law - Bastiat, Narnia series - C.S. Lewis
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Getting engaged online before meeting the girl, after knowing her for three months. Getting and staying married to her.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm very passionate about my opinions. I like to talk about them in a rather unemotional, detached way, to keep my objectivity. People who are comfortable with my level of commitment and certainty, will enjoy interesting conversations - I know, I will. I like to constantly learn about new things - how people live their lives, what they do that not many others do, ideas they've picked up, the way they think.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I like talking about meaningful topics. I often have an alternative perspective on things, so you may hear something new. We can talk about Germany or how I met my wife or a big range of other topics.
